Do you know why less rural students aim for higher education. This is definitely not a positive trend.
The salaries for a manual construction laborer starts at 3000 RMB per month. A waiter makes 2500 plus free food and housing. A welder can make 10000 RMB per month with 5 years of experience.
A college graduate starts at 2500 RMB per month and usually don't get to live in a factory (since for every 100 technicians, there only needs to be 10 engineers and 1 manager), so they must pay their own food and housing.
The reason rural residents don't want a college degree are numerous. Even though a college graduate makes less money at first, they can rise faster, and they have less stressful working conditions. However, many parents don't see this and instead tell their children to go to trade school because they start at higher wages and don't have to invest in as much tuition.
